Most Brookhaven decluttering projects stall in the sentimental closet. Start in the attic or garage instead, where decisions are colder and faster.
Brookhaven attics get hot early. Work them at sunrise or wait for a cooler weekend, take water, and limit each trip to forty-five minutes.
What we usually see
Bag anything moldy, donate sealed goods, and stage the haul pile by the door before you open the photo boxes.
